Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Improvement Era, Vol. 11: April, 1908
Though the preceding paragraph shows that Lord Kelvin did not believe in the origin of life without the assistance of a God, yet he makes himself a great deal clearer in the somewhat long extract which follows. Carefully read, this paragraph will be found to teach that life is eternal; that life on this earth came from other spheres; that the law of natural selection is imperfect, and does not account for the variety of living things; that the law of evolution is true only as it conforms to the law of progression; that the whole of nature teaches the existence of a great designer or great governing power; and that finally, the power of free agency encircles our lives.
